The Kyte Baby Fallout: When a Family-Friendly Business Isn't Really Family Friendly (solo episode)
Description
When family and work collide, the aftermath can echo across the nation. That's precisely what happened in the heart-wrenching case of Marissa and Kyte Baby. This short solo episode talks about the Kyte Baby controversy and the reality of parental leave policies in America.
I talk through Marissa's ordeal with her premature baby's NICU stay, her employer's rigid policies, and the viral aftermath that shook the foundation of Kyte Baby's brand. This isn't just a narrative about one company's misstep; it's an examination of the systemic failures and a call for change in the workplace. Employees need empathy and support from their leaders, especially in times of such a fragile situation as having a premature baby.
